All of our RHOBH favorites returned last night and left us with a lot to talk about – especially in the last two minutes of the episode.

The first episode of RHOBH season 10 started quickly – it almost seemed like we catapulted into episode three with how quickly everything started.  Dorit Kemsley mentioned her lawsuit with Beverly Beach…which was certainly a fresh take on things.  But then she really rode in on her high horse while Kyle Richards was struggling with the fashion show for Kyle + Shahida.  She even said, “Why don’t I just throw my name on it and it’ll be a success,” about Kyle.  Um, Dorit…that’s literally what you did.  Are you just mad she stole your schtick?

Erika Jayne decided to take the group to the strip club she used to work at, called Shakers.  That was also a fresh take on things.  Garcelle Beauvais was fabulous from the moment she stepped on screen.  She took shots of tequila with no chaser and was clearly a real friend of Denise….and a great addition to the group.

Kyle’s here to run the show…or ruin the show

Kyle showed up to her own fashion show 90 minutes before showtime.  Tracie, the producer, was busy showing the models what to do on the runway because apparently, they didn’t even have a run-through.  The show consisted of vibrant robes with zebras on them…and then one black robe.  Tracie even asked that Kyle stay away from her as she kept meddling with every minute detail.

It seemed that Kyle had no involvement with anything until the last minute when she came in and tried to run the show.  She even had the audacity to tell Tracie that her daughter was joining the models no matter what.  The show went fine but that was no thanks to Kyle.

But Denise, honey!

But the end of the episode was the real drama.  A black screen came up that confined that Denise Richards had quit filming for season ten in December.  The fashion show was in September so she didn’t film for very long before the diamonds hit the fan if that’s the case.  It is unclear when the issue with Brandi Glanville began, but we can assume that was the catalyst to Denise’s issues with the group.

So with Lisa Vanderpump gone, Kyle was on her worst behavior trying to take the crown for herself.  But she’s about to be one-upped by the drama with Denise…and we can’t wait to watch it happen.
